[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MIDEA-54?page=comments#action_84826 ] Immo Huneke commented on MIDEA-54: ----------------------------------
This is proving very inconvenient for us too. We have some components that can work with a range of versions of other components. Each time we wish to regenerate the IDEA module files, we have to replace every range expression with just a single version number in order to ensure that the .iml file doesn't omit all external libraries. > Fixed range versions in dependencies corrupt the module file > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MIDEA-54 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MIDEA-54 > Project: Maven 2.x Idea Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Environment: maven 2.0.4, plugin snapshot built from svn > Reporter: Andrew Perepelytsya > > I have the following config snippet declared in pom.xml: > {code} > <dependency> > <groupId>xerces</groupId> > <artifactId>xercesImpl</artifactId> > <!-- > Explicitly fixing on a dependency version (those > square brackets) > does not seem to work completely as expected at the > moment. > As a workaround, dependency excludes are sprinkled > throughout the project. > Keep an eye on: > http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1577 > --> > <version>[2.8.0]</version> > </dependency> > {code} > Note those *square brackets*, this works ok with Maven letting it sort of fix > the 2.8.0 version. Now it seemed to be fine when I initially generated > idea:idea project (dependency was at 2.6.2 version then). Recently it has > been upgraded, and I went back to re-generate the core module via > idea:module.
